FIRE button to start. When the “CRAZED WAVE” appears (at 32,500),

message!

“mystery” dessert (mentioned in the manual) is a pie. It appears after
the completion of 3 full-course meals, at around 525,000 points, in both Taz

The action speeds up when you hit the crazed wave, and again at the start of the
3rd meal.

·If you graze a stick of dynamite while moving either up or down,
